MIAMI (January 16, 2018) – Facebook today announced a brand new action-packed series FLY GUYS that will debut on Facebook Watch on Friday, February 2, 2018.

The non-scripted ten-episode series (each 12-15 minutes in length) will follow an all-star crew of Europe’s most talented acrobats and professional stunt performers, and will highlight their challenges and successes as they design, build, and execute gravity defying over-the-top physical performances in stunning locations throughout Eastern Europe. These include medieval castles, massive rock quarries, majestic sheer cliff sides, and towering industrial structures, among other locales.

On Facebook Watch, fans can share episodes with their community, connect with fellow viewers and follow the FLY GUYS show page to add new episodes to the Watchlist, viewable on mobile, desktop and Facebook’s TV apps.

“This series is nonstop action, with extraordinary visuals and a scientific method to the madness, all assembled by a squad of extremely gifted acrobatic performs,” said Josh Entman, Cofounder and Chief Creative Officer of Jukin Media, which is producing the series. “This is a motley crew of craftsmen, mathematicians, engineers, and performers who can pretty much pull off any imaginable stunt.”

Each episode explores every aspect of what it takes to safely and successfully pull off a world-class stunt -- innovative design concepts, seemingly insurmountable logistical challenges, rigorous testing, and, ultimately, the flawless execution of daring, never-before-attempted stunts on a massive scale.

FLY GUYS is produced for Facebook’s Watch by Jukin Media. For Jukin, Jonathan Skogmo and Entman, serve as executive producers.
